World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
- Blogsites are treated in the same manner as social media sites. Medium, Blogger, Substack, etc. are not valid news links regardless of who is posting them. Yes, legitimate news sites use Blogging platforms, they also use Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube and we don't allow those links either.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

well Palestine isn't a real country yet, if you mean mandatory Palestine that's a different place and time. also palastina which was named by the romans was a place IN Judea that had "different people". aside from history, what isreal has is a group of people who think that they can build a house where other people live and the goverment lets them, the settlers as they are called. Yeah that shit ain't good. I just want a fucking 2 state so isreal has their half, and gaza/west-bank can have their own place, and just leave each other the fuck alone.

yeah....its as if Zionism...isn't a new thing. im lost on the point your trying to make.
Yeah bibi is a piece of work and belongs behind bars for a long time.
In response to this
but its not....tell me how im wrong.
What you said is like saying 'New York is not a country' if Uzbekistan says they want to colonize New York.
The entire concept of 'countries' in the Middle East is stupid because all of the 'countries' we have now were invented in the 19th century by Sykes Picot. Egypt didn't exist as a 'country'. Syria didn't exist as a 'country'. Palestine didn't exist as a 'country'.
ok
That's not the point , the point is that zionists acknowledge that the whole land was called palestine before the creation of Israel and that they wanted to accupy the whole land from the beginning
ok again, did i say i am defending Zionists? maybe i didn't make it clear, but i don't support Zionism.
You are discusding in bad faith you keep accusing me of stuffs I never said
Ok I'm not let me put it another way, your preaching to the choir.
I am not preaching to the choir you said multiple factually wrong stuffs that I corrected
I never used the word country but the area when Israel forced it state was called mendatory Palestine so it fair to say Palestine.
Judea was destoryed long before zionism it didn't exist when zionists started migrating to Palestine
A two state is dead because of israel building settlements with impunity for decades. How can a weak newly formed palestinian state would handle 2 millions arabs that lived in Israel moving there? I don't even think Israel can handle 750k settlers moving to Israel
eh, getting into Zionist stuff is different for me, i am of the mind that Jewish does not equal Zionist, and that the average Israeli that is Jewish, is most likely not a Zionist, just the extremists.
Nobody said that Jewish equate Zionism here. Actually it is pro genocide and settler colonialism in Palestine who try to equal Jewishness with Zionism. It is also a fact that Israel never accepted to give a full Palestinians state on all the land occupied by Israel with all it's right including an army
yes i am aware of the history, that's why i want 2 states, because the Palestinians deserve their own state.
Which every single israeli leaders refused
2-state solution? arafat did as well, but i agree Israel doesn't do a good job of pushing it.
Arafat did recognize Israel in his letter to Rabin after signing Oslo while Rabin never did and even say we will give less than a state to palestine with no control over border,airspace etc
